Radiologic Technology

Once the prerequisite courses are completed with a minimum of "C" an application to the Radiologic Technology Program can be submitted. (Students enrolled in RTE 1001 may also apply.) Due to limited clinical space, a competitive process is used to determine admission to the Radiologic Technology Program. 

Applications are evaluated and scored with points awarded based on: 

• GPA in prerequisite courses
• Grades in BIO 2101, BIO 2102, and RTE 1001
• Writing skills
• Prior health care work experience
• Residence in the MCC service area
• Interview Score

Applications are accepted in late spring of each year. Students who are not admitted for the following fall will need to re-apply for the next year. 

Note: RTE 1001 Introduction to Radiography must be taken within one year of acceptance and requires minimum final course grade of 80%. If RTE 1001 is over one year, the course can be repeated or PHY 1105 Conceptual Physics can be accepted 

Proof of requirements are submitted through online record tracking system.
